Chubbs Grub Station in Alabaster has recently celebrated its one year anniversary. Since being in business, Chubbs has provided thousands of meals for the needy around the area. Will Cholewinski is the owner of this local burger joint, who also has a dream to essentially end hunger in the state of Alabama in the next few years.

As a young boy, Will knew that his calling in life was to feed the needy. He experienced hunger in his early years and knew that he wanted to help others. Over the years Will has worked with local food banks and schools to raise donations and food for those in need.

 In just one year Chubbs has been able to provide 10,000 meals to the local food bank. Will credits most of it to the involvement of the community to support this great cause. "The community has provided 5,000 meals, I just matched that," said Will.

In the next 25 years Will plans on expanding his business nationwide. The more restaurants that are open, the more food they will be able to provide for those in need. "200 stores in the next 25 to 30 years gives me the ability to provide 1 million people a year. 3 meals a day, 365 days a year. Which effectively ends hunger in the state of Alabama," says Will.

This local burger joint has the best burgers around, but also provides tremendous support to the community. If you donate 2 non-perishable items, you will receive a free drink. After donating 15 times, you will receive a free meal. At the end of the month, Chubbs actually matches the donations and takes them to the local food banks.
